Lying For Jesus: The Abortion/Breast Cancer Link

For those who oppose abortion no tactic is too sleazy. The scare tactic of stopping abortion by linking it with breast cancer was manna from heaven. The visceral fear of breast cancer would present the faithful with a weapon to be wielded with no regard for the facts. The fact that the scientific evidence shows no link between abortion and breast cancer fazed them not.

The recent Komen/Planned Parenthood publicity and Komen’s ties to this woo, has reanimated this long-dead controversy.

The Komen tie-in is via Jane Abraham, a member of the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Advocacy Alliance board of directors. Abraham is also on the board of directors of The Nurturing Network, an organization founded and chaired by Mary Cunningham Agee. It was Agee who, in 1999, wrote in a Culture of Life Foundation newsletter that “the undeniable link between breast cancer and abortion is only the ‘tip of an iceberg’ of damage that medical science is now able to reveal about this procedure.”

Abraham is also founder and General Chairman of the Susan B. Anthony List. On its website, the SBA List touts its Komen connection while claiming:

There are also studies that link abortion to breast cancer- which is precisely what SGK is supposed to be fighting against.

Not even a tort lawyer would think of using abortionists as expert witnesses in the courtroom to deny an abortion-breast cancer link – the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. Asking them whether abortion raises risk is akin to asking the tobacco industry whether cigarette smoking raises lung cancer risk. Anyone with an ounce of common sense can recognize that if medical texts, medical authorities, and the American Cancer Society agree that increased childbearing, starting early before age 24, sharply reduces risk, then having an induced abortion leaves a woman with a higher risk than does having a full term pregnancy. That is a RECOGNIZED risk of abortion, like it or not.

I wish I was getting paid but like the myth that big oil and the koch brothers and the heartland institute are funding a massive financial campaign towards climate change denial is just like climate change/global warming due to mans activity is just that a myth. There is far more money pumped into the other side. There is the so called consensus but yet the message is failing and on the ropes of complete breakdown. So when gas prices get to $5.00 a gallon, have just hit $4.00 in California overnight, and the price of goods and services increases just remember you are helping solve a non existing problem that has lasted for years called Climate Change.

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (Feb. 14, 2012) — During some winters a significant amount of snow falls on parts of California. During other winters — like this one (so far) — there is much less snow. But more than 130 years of snow data show that over time snowfall in California is neither increasing nor decreasing.
